Thank you for the link to the YouTube video. There are some thought-provoking (and behavior-changing) ideas in those 9 minutes.

After selecting a strategy the AI berserkers* take over and relentlessly and pitilessly drive you forward to Total World Domination.
So I guess what I’m saying is: I don’t understand how AI participates in that “In the beginning . . . “ creation of a strategy. Unless, of course, AI is God.
